"The thirteen military officers involved in the case have already sent a letter to Commander Lu to request cooperation." Tao Shifeng said, "The local authorities are not allowed to interfere in military affairs at will. Master Zhou has to discuss this matter with Commander Lu."
Tiansheng's military system, in addition to setting up frontier troops on the borders with other countries in the northern and southern borders, also set up prefectural troops in various provinces, which are under the control of the commanders of the capitals and are directly responsible for the five armies of the imperial court. The highest military officer, although the three divisions are headed by the chief envoy, but in fact the separation of functions and powers is not under the authority. It is no wonder that Zhou Xizhong and Tao Shifeng could not continue to deal with the land seizure case involving the army.
"What did Commander Lu say?"
"Commander Lu was inspecting the border of Fujian a few days ago, and the army to conquer the South was about to launch. The imperial court ordered Commander Lu to stay in Huilong County to supervise the food and grass of the army. Don't worry, brother." Tao Shifeng laughed, "Lord Lu is an extremely fair person, he never uses private individuals to form cliques for personal gain, if this matter is entrusted to him, there will be a fair verdict."
Feng Zhiwei let out a "hmm", and flipped through the case files again, and suddenly saw a line under the name of the director who was involved in the case, which seemed to have been drawn with a fingernail.
Startled, she picked up the man's case file and read it carefully. This man's resume seems ordinary. He was born in Shannan. The secretary did his work, and a series of military exploits made by this person in the past are attached in detail. Among them are the three wars against Da Vietnam in the first year of Changxi, the war against Xiliang in the fifth year of Changxi, and the 100,000 wars in the seventh year of Changxi. The Dashan barbarians revolted, and this person also participated in the suppression.
Just these, what's wrong
"This guy is quite a character." Tao Shifeng glanced behind her, and said with a smile, "It is said that he has a very hot temper and often argues with Mr. Lu. Mr. Lu doesn't like him very much. He deserves to be unlucky now."
However, Feng Zhiwei had already closed her eyes, slowly thinking about the resumes of officials at all levels in the South China Sea that Ning Yi had briefly mentioned after she came to the South China Sea.
Ning Yi must have listened to Ning Cheng read these case files to him. He must have felt that something was wrong at the time, but because he didn't think it out or didn't have time, he only made this mark.
What is wrong
"Master Tao, I would like to transfer the files of officials above the fourth rank in the South China Sea." After thinking about it, Feng Zhiwei said.
"It's impossible." Tao Shifeng cut it off straight away, "Official files are not allowed to be borrowed."
"As the commissioner of Nankaido, I order you." With a flip of Feng Zhiwei's hand, the imperial envoy's guards spread out in front of Tao Shifeng, refusing to give an inch.
Tao Shifeng looked distressed, and said for a while, "This is not my domain..."
"I will take care of everything." Feng Zhiwei cut off his words.
A thick pile of official files was finally brought, Tao Shifeng went out knowingly, Feng Zhiwei glanced at the pile of files, didn't search at all, went straight to the top, and found Lu Bo's file.
It was false to say that she wanted the files of officials above rank four, but what she really wanted to check was Lu Bo's details.
Flipping through the pages, the scorching light of the oil lamp made her face turn pale. After a while, she sneered slightly.
The three wars against Da Vietnam in the first year of Changxi, the war against Xiliang in the fifth year of Changxi, and the uprising of the 100,000 Dashan barbarians in the seventh year of Changxi... Lu Bo's resume and that incident are surprisingly repeated.
She turned back to look through the case file of that person, and sure enough, she saw a thin paper decree, dated in the eighth year of Changxi.
In the seventh year of Changxi, the 100,000 mountain barbarians rebelled, and the imperial court sent troops three times to suppress them. The barbarians took advantage of the steep terrain of the mountain, which greatly damaged some of the imperial court's self-righteous generals. Many of them were punished and deposed by the imperial court in the first two battles. .
After he was deposed, he was transferred to the South China Sea. In the second year, Lu Bo was transferred to the commander of the South China Sea because of his victory in the third battle against the barbarians.
Feng Zhi closed the files of the two with a snap, sparking a burst of old papers and light soot, she took the two files and walked out of the study, and asked Tao Shifeng who was waiting outside, "Master Tao, you told me earlier, where did you intercept the files?" That group of people?"
"Wuji Mountain at the junction of the South China Sea and Southern Fujian."
Feng Zhiwei nodded, walked out quickly, stopped suddenly in front of the door, raised his head to think for a while, and said, "Master Tao, please take the seal of the inspector's office and my imperial envoy's seal immediately, and go to Huilong County to In the name of investigating the land expropriation case, detain the officer involved in the case, and send a fast horse to recover the batch of grain and grass that has been escorted, and if it cannot be recovered, it will be destroyed on the spot.”
"You're crazy!" Tao Shifeng couldn't believe what she was saying for a moment. He took a step back and said with a pale face, "Do you know what you are talking about? Interfering in military affairs? Detaining serving officers without authorization? Intercepting military rations, or even destroying them? You Whatever you say is a U-turn!"
"I didn't say a single word wrong." Feng Zhiwei remained expressionless, "Master Tao, although you and I are equal in rank, the imperial envoys have the power to make emergency decisions. You can do it, and I will take care of everything."
"This is not such a trivial matter as shifting gears! This is a bastard's decision to kill the family!" Tao Shifeng was furious, and turned around and left with a flick of his sleeves. "If you want to die, I won't stop you, don't pull me!"
He angrily passed by Feng Zhiwei, intending to brush shoulders with this calm lunatic.
Feng Zhiwei remained motionless, and when he passed by, she suddenly smiled and said:
"offend."
She played the pipa with her fingers, and swung it silently.
Tao Shifeng only felt the cold wind hit his face, and then his eyes went dark.
Catching Tao Shifeng's limp body with one hand, dragging him back to the study, Feng Zhiwei closed the door, and after a while, rang the golden bell beside the door.
This is the ringing of the bell used by the inspector's study to summon his subordinates. Not long after, a few people came rushing, but when they got close, they saw that the door was closed tightly, and they did not dare to push the door without authorization. Through the shadow cast on the window paper, Seeing that Mr. Tao was meeting with Mr. Imperial Envoy to discuss something, the two voices were very low and vague, and they couldn't make out what they said, so they heard a sentence or a sentence, "In this case... Please brother Wei...", "I'm urgent. Quan..." and so on, they couldn't understand it, and felt more and more mysterious, so they all retreated awe-inspiringly.
Immediately after Feng Zhiwei opened the door and came out, he half turned around at the door and cupped his hands inside the room, saying: "Your Majesty Tao doesn't need to send it off, you can rest assured that I will leave this matter to my brother, you should hurry up and write a note to the court one by one to make it clear." Then he closed the door .
